[Opinions] Felicity
What do you think? Too old fashioned, or a mouthful? I have come to love this name and would love to use it for a future daughter. My Grandmother is Felicitas, My mom is Felicia, and I would love to use a name related to that. I love the name Felicity so much. WDYT?

Felicity's a beautiful name. Lovely sound and lovely meaning.

I love it. Especially with the similar names in your family, but I would use it even without (except my hubby says no :P).

Felicity would be a great honoring name. I love it as well.

Ooh, I love it! It's a recent favorite for me. I don't think it's too old-fashioned or clunky or long - it's very pretty, and I'm starting to hear of a few very fashionably named babies called Felicity. :) Felicity Jane

I think Felicity is lovely. It's spent some time high up on my favourites list over the years.
It doesn't feel old fashioned to me at all, probably because I have known a few children with the name over the past few years. It is long (though I don't mind that at all), but it does lend iself to a few nn such as Flick, Flea and Lissy.

I really like it. In fact I think it's going on my PNL right now. I've been warming up to it for months. I especially like that it connects to your grandmother and mother. I don't think it's too old-fashioned; I've only ever met one IRL and she's 8 (she goes by Flossie). And it's certainly not too much of a mouthful - I can't see how it would be. Go for it!

I love it! It sounds so sweet and spunky.

I don't think it's old fashioned or a mouthful. I've always been surprised it isn't more popular. I think it's slightly frilly, but sweet. I do like it, but it's not a favorite. It would be cool for you to use it for a daughter, given your grandmother and mother's names.

I like it. I think it sounds sweeter and more elegant than Felicia (for some reason, Felicia has become a trashy name where I live).The only negative is that the WB show might be referenced, but that's not a big deal.
